Nebraska Basketball Team to Wear Throwback Uniforms to Celebrate 1911-12 Team

The Nebraska Cornhuskers have decided to break out throwback uniforms for Saturday’s Legends Weekend game against the Northwestern Wildcats.

Adidas has come up with a uniform to pay tribute to the 1911-12 Cornhusker team that won the school's first conference title, back when Nebraska was part of the Missouri Valley Conference. The 1911-12 team went 14-1 overall and 8-0 in the conference under the coaching of E.O. “Jumbo” Stiehm.

Huskers.com shared the details of the uniform:

The jerseys, specially created by adidas for Saturday’s game, are inspired by the 1911-12 team and feature cream colored tops and bottoms with a White accent stripe with an N logo across the middle of the jersey tops. One major difference in the jerseys is that the 1911-12 Husker jerseys did not have jersey numbers, so the number on Saturday’s throwbacks are below the stripe as well as on the back of the jersey.

For those who love the modern uniform designs, these won't do much for you.
